Program
Mind The Mom gives you the opportunity to fill your own cup, completely guilt-free.
The retreat’s typical daily schedule is structured with time for moms in the morning to practice yoga, take part in workshops, or enjoy nurturing treatments, alongside other like-minded moms.
During this time, your child is cared for onsite with their own carefully curated activities and experiences to enjoy. Following a delicious brunch prepared onsite, families are then brought together for the afternoon to either enjoy the villa or explore the surrounding nature and beaches.
Dads and partners are also welcome in this retreat.
Yoga classes
Mind The Mom offers daily yoga classes held in English guided by Daniela Luz, a 500-hour Certified Yoga teacher and mindfulness and meditation mentor. She will guide the students through a Vinyasa flow class, including fluid exercises (asanas), breathing techniques (pranayama), guided meditation, and relaxation. The yoga classes are suitable for beginners, as well as more practiced yogis.
Child care
Childcare is available from 09:00-13:00 daily for children of all ages. They pride themselves on creating connections between their childcare team and your child, and so each childminder will work with a maximum of 3 children, depending on their age.
For infants younger than 12 months, the staff-to-child ratio is 1:1 to ensure that their meal and sleep routines can be respected. Their youngest guests under 1 will also enjoy more in-arms time for comfort and connection.
Age-appropriate creative workshops will be held throughout the morning. Your child will enjoy sensory and creative play through natural playdough, arts and crafts, a mud kitchen, and exploring the natural beauty of the Algarve.
Sacred Cacao ceremony
The Cacao circle supports you in creating a safe and sacred space for love and connection and is the perfect tool to open space to dive deeper and experience the true alchemy of cacao and the heart.
